There came then His brethren and His mother, and, standing without, sent unto Him, calling him. And the multitude sat about Him, and they said unto Him, Behold, Thy mother and Thy brethren without seek for Thee. And He answered them, saying, Who is My mother, or My brethren? And He looked round about on them which sat about Him, and said, Behold My mother and My brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of GOD, the same is My brother, and My sister, and mother. (Mar 3:31-35)
While He walked this earth He never sinned, but His plans and purposes always remained in obedience to His Heavenly Father. He always did the will of His Father and was always about His Father's business. That should be our goal, for those of us who are secure in His Salvation because of our trust in Him, we ought to seek His will and accomplish His work in this world, for we are His workmanship and the greater works which we do are the works which He has before ordained that we should walk in them by faith. We don't earn or keep that which GOD has graciously given to us but glorify our GOD as He works through and in us that which He has purposed for us to do, when we are obedient to His call and submit to His service.
For we who are His people are called to serve, we are His ambassadors and are to minister to those around us with the Word of righteousness and reconciliation, rightly divided and fitly spoken, that they may know Him as they see Christ in us, the hope of Glory. Those of us in His family are commanded to love, as members one of another, and to disciple one another in His Word that we may grow up into the full measure of Him with whom we have to do. We who are His children and soldiers of the Cross are to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to this lost and dying world, and as we go in the power of the Holy Spirit that is within us, we are to proclaim the Good News of forgiveness through repentance and reconciliation with the Father who loves us through faith in His Son, that those who believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Messiah of GOD might have life in His Name.
For GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance and the knowledge of the Truth. Jesus loves you and wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Surrender to Him on His terms and He will give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. GOD calls you to trust Him and what He has already done for you to pay your sIn debt. He has provided the only way of reconciliation with GOD, forgiveness from GOD, and Salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, to give you a new life in Christ. Turn away from yourself and your sIn and turn to Him alone for eternal Life, now and always.
In Christ,
